About The Red Lion Tavern

The Red Lion Tavern offers a fun and authentic German dining experience. They serve a variety of German dishes, including an excellent sauerbraten, chicken schnitzel, and pretzels, all complemented by a selection of beers. The outdoor patio is a delightful spot, especially on warm days, and has hosted events like luncheons with delicious sausages, sauerkraut, cheeses, red cabbage, crispy potato pancakes, and pretzels for guests to enjoy. The overall atmosphere remains enjoyable, and the owner brings a cheerful vibe that makes guests feel welcome. Parking is available in a small free lot next to the restaurant, with additional free street parking nearby.

Customers recommend ordering the pretzels and the schnitzel, which is amazing. The spaetzle is different from what they are used to and is recommended with a side of gravy. The atmosphere on the rooftop patio is fantastic, although the waitress was busy. The bathrooms could use some improvement. Downstairs, there is live music and a classic bar, while upstairs and outside, there is dining. Customers tried the signature chicken strips and curry wurst, which were decent, and the beer of the month, which was incredibly smooth and light.
